This Mother’s Day, we celebrate young mothers not only for the care they give, but for the power, leadership, and resilience they carry every day. 💛
As part of the Young Mothers Consortium, was proud to see young mothers and community partners represented at the Conference, bringing global attention to the realities, challenges, and strengths of adolescent mothers across our communities.
Through the Young Mothers Project implemented in Kenya and Tanzania, CRVPF works alongside young mothers to create safe spaces for healing, learning, leadership, and economic empowerment. The project is grounded in a simple but powerful belief: young mothers are not passive recipients of support, but active agents of change in their own lives and communities.
At Women Deliver 2026, Fausta from Jamii Yetu represented community voices in conversations around power-building interventions in vulnerable communities such as Arusha, sharing reflections on how storytelling, collective care, and community-led approaches are helping shift harmful norms and create new possibilities for young mothers.
Yesterday was Mother’s Day, but we continue to honor young mothers whose courage and determination inspire change far beyond their own journeys. 🌍✨
